If someone takes the abortion pill but feels nauseous or vomits shortly after swallowing it, what should they do? Will the dose need to be repeated?

When taking abortion pills, your body needs time to absorb the medication so it can work effectively.
If you vomit within the first 30 minutes after swallowing the pill, it may not have been fully absorbed, and the dose might not work as expected so it’s important to contact a healthcare professional to check if you need another dose.
However, if vomiting happens after 30 minutes, most of the medicine has already been absorbed, and the pill will usually still be effective, so repeating the dose is not typically necessary.
To help prevent nausea or vomiting, eating a small snack beforehand or using a doctor-recommended anti-nausea tablet can be helpful. The key point to remember is that timing matters, and if you’re unsure, it’s always safest to seek medical advice.
